The location

St Gluvias Street is both central and convenient whilst being tucked away with a mix of stone cottages some of which are Grade II listed. Penryn is one of the oldest towns in Cornwall, having received its first charter in 1265; a full town of surprises and surrounded by lovely countryside. The building of Glasney College in 1265 placed the town on the map then the arrival of Falmouth and Exeter University turned Penryn into a buzzing and vibrant area. Many local sports clubs are active in the community including Penryn Football Club, St Gluvias Cricket Club and Penryn Rugby Club. Penryn is served by Penryn Primary Academy and Penryn College, whilst a 6th form can be found available at Falmouth School. The town enjoys good communication with Falmouth via its regular bus service and its train station, which links to the city of Truro and mainline Paddington service. Falmouth town (approximately 2 miles)provides an eclectic and more comprehensive range of shopping, schooling, business and leisure facilities. And was recently voted 'the best place to live in the South West' in UK.
